Krátky popis
Henry Kissinger analyses how six extraordinary leaders he has known
have shaped their countries and the world'Leaders,' writes Henry
Kissinger in this compelling book, 'think and act at the
intersection of two axes: the first, between the past and the
future, the second between the abiding values and aspirations of
those they lead. They must balance what they know, which is
necessarily drawn from the past, with what they intuit about the
future, which is inherently conjectural and uncertain. It is this
intuitive grasp of direction that enables leaders to set objectives
and lay down a strategy.'In Leadership, Kissinger analyses the
lives of six extraordinary leaders through the distinctive
strategies of statecraft which he believes they embodied.After the
Second World War, Konrad Adenauer brought defeated and morally
bankrupt Germany back into the community of nations by what
Kissinger calls 'the strategy of humility'. Charles de Gaulle set
France beside the victorious Allies and renewed its historic
grandeur by 'the strategy of will'. During the Cold War, Richard
Nixon gave geostrategic advantage to the United States by 'the
strategy of equilibrium'.After twenty-five years of conflict, Anwar
Sadat brought a vision of peace to the Middle East by a 'strategy
of transcendence'. Against the odds, Lee Kwan Yew created a
powerhouse city-state, Singapore, by 'the strategy of excellence'.
Although when she came to power Britain was known as 'the sick man
of Europe', Margaret Thatcher renewed her country's morale and
international position by 'the strategy of conviction'.To each of
these studies, Kissinger brings historical perception, public
experience and - because he knew each of their subjects, and
participated in many of the events he describes - personal
knowledge. The book is enriched by insights and judgements such as
only he could make, and concludes with his reflections on world
order and the indispensability of leadership today.
